The Integrated Nutrition Pathway for Acute Care (INPAC) is an evidence and consensus based pathway developed to guide health care professionals in the prevention, detection, and treatment of malnutrition in medical and surgical patients. From 2015 to 2017, the More-2-Eat implementation project (M2E) used a participatory action research approach to determine the feasibility, and evaluate the implementation of INPAC in 5 hospital units across Canada. Based on the findings of M2E and consensus with M2E stakeholders, updates have been made to INPAC to enhance feasibility in Canadian hospitals. The learnings from M2E have been converted into an online toolkit that outlines how to implement the key steps within INPAC. The aim of this short report is to highlight the updated version of INPAC, and introduce the implementation toolkit that was used to support practice improvements towards this standard.
《急性护理综合营养途径(INPAC)》是一个循证和共识为基础的途径,旨在指导医疗保健专业人员预防、发现和治疗医学和外科患者的营养不良。在 2015 年至 2017 年期间,“更多进食”实施项目(M2E)采用参与式行动研究方法,在加拿大的 5 个医院单位确定 INPAC 的可行性,并评估其实施情况。根据 M2E 的研究结果以及与 M2E 利益相关者的共识,对 INPAC 进行了更新,以提高加拿大医院的可行性。M2E 的经验教训已转化为一个在线工具包,概述了如何在 INPAC 中实施关键步骤。本简要报告的目的是重点介绍更新后的 INPAC,并介绍用于支持朝着这一标准改进实践的实施工具包。
